LONG before I'd spring $5grand for a stroker kit
I'd buy the pieces to assemble myself an ALUMINUM (aussie Block)
351 Cleveland engine

$5grand to stroke a 4.0 by HALF a liter is a sick joke only equaled in it's magnitude
to the stupidity of anyone who would actually give them the money.

You realize the price on that stroker kit is $100 per/cc?

Even Heroin isn't that expensive so I wonder just what people
are taking to go for it....

Christ for $5grand you can buy an aluminum head 351 GT40 engine
from ford and have enough money left over to buy ost of the parts
to install it.

with the $5 grand for the stroker kit you still need to have your block
machined and engine assembled...

Frankly if I was stuck on a 4.0 I'd go hunting for one of the old Motorsport kis to put a Paxton on a 1993-94 4.0.

I already swapped to the 4.0 and have broken things that make me nervous about increased power without a bigger trans/t-case.

I've snapped my output shaft and blown the front bearing retainer out of my 13-54 T-case, so....
